do you do any volunteer/community work? What sets you apart from all the other guys with 3000 hours? Thats the question to be asking, Delta has hired guys with as little as 2500 total from civilian background, the kicker being all the other "stuff" on their app.

It sounds like early next year will kick off in near max capacity with only minimal slowdowns for quite a while.

Wasn't there recent chatter about fall doing the same though?

Not trying to be a Richard, but I just came from the school house a few days ago. The instructors were saying we have too many pilots and the plan is to run the company on green slips. Obviously not an official company communication, just what I was told.

Well I guess trip construction is going to continue to deteriorate on the NBs. Not sure how they can say this with all the upcoming retirements. After this summer if they dont realize there is more than a financial cost to doing business with this strategy then i think all of their yippee kayee talk is complete BS. Of course it could all be a negotiation ploy on mgmts part too. I was never a big fan of Dickson but things sure have gone downhill since his departure. With JG and Capt, I mean Co-pilot, I mean Capt with LCA supervision RG in charge Im losing confidence rapidly.

Who does one talk to at the schoolhouse to get this scandalous info? If it's an instructor, I find their info to be right 50% of the time.

850 needed, probably 1200 to be hired, 100 a month maybe by October is what some of the instructors were told. Although last year it was supposed to be much stronger than it was this year.
